Abstract

Abstract Toluene, m-xylene, and mesitylene complexes prepared with AlCl3 and HCl, were separated from the upper hydrocarbon layer and allowed to react with ethylbenzene at 2 and 30 °C. The proton exchange between methylbenzenium ions and ethylbenzene, and the transalkylation of ethylbenzene were investigated by 13C NMR spectroscopy.
